Pir Pagara hints breaking away from PPP alliance
Speaking to media during an Iftar dinner in Karachi, Pir Pagara said that current situation is against the ruling party.
As an almost knee-jerk reaction, the Prime Minister, who was coincidentally in the city, dropped in for impromptu talks.
Pir Pagara said the PML-F wants to work with the PPP but the PPP does not want to work with it.
Earlier, Pir Pagara had said that President Asif Ali Zardari wishes to continue the alliance but the local leadership of PPP continues to defy his orders.
He had also alleged that general elections will not be held within one year.
“Different theories and perception have come to the fore, but ground realities say the general elections are further away than March,” he had said, adding, “Politics means give and take and my party has always supported others, but the time has now come to gain support and help in the future setup of the government.”

@Cheema: If this is jok of the year, then I have serious question on your judgment, when you deny physical reality, Pml N is a national party even dirty zakat stealing khan, Ppp MQM all acknowledge then national party.
This guy changes colours like chameleon and realizes that PPP is doomed for the next elections so he has to look up to another beneficiary. I hope that PTI does not touch him and let him go to the PML-N or whoever. What is so great about him anyway.
This is the technique of getting funds from PPP....trust me, they are not gona leave.
There will be lot going on in couple of month and I don't think that general elections will be held on time, neither I can see that PPP will be able to complete its five-year term.
The sitting Pir Sain Pagara does not have the same temperament similar to his father.
He is a different person and speaks quite differently.
Join hands with national level party of PML N, you will get all the respect you deserves.
